Baltimore & Ohio,

PITTsBURG, Jan. Sit was leaned
from reliable source that the differences
between the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
company and the engineers of the Pittsburg
division of that road have been comprO-
missed, but the terms of the settlement are
not known.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. Jan. 3.-No change
has occurred in the relations between the
Baltimore & Ohio and Philadelphia & Read
ing Railroad companies regarding the New
York business of the former company, and
no arrangement for the through passenger
traffic has been effected. A Baltimore &
Ohio official was asked to-day whether any
attempt would be made to run passenger
trains over the new connection, and he
replied:
Not at present; for, practically, at this
time, we have no New York outlet, and dc
not think any attempt will be made legally to
enforce the existing contracts with the Read
ing and Jersey Central, fcr it would be poor
policy to attempt to make these lines fulfill
any agreement if they are really unfavoraule
to US. But if something is not accomplished
soon the Baltimore & Ohio will consider
itself as line to Philadelphia, and you may
expect some lively times. Work has been
suspended on the double track of the Balti-
more Philadelphia railroad, the order hay
ing been given TWO weeks ago TO eonfine all
operations to mantainance of way. The
Baltimore s. Ohio must have an independent
line to New York, and if such line is not
secured by connections with existing roads
the company will have a route of its own.
IN other quarters doubt is thrown on the
announcement that the Baltimore & Ohio is
satisfied to consider Philadelphia as its ter

Louis Philippe i'm Newbury por

Newburyport. (Mass.,) Herald.
An opposite neighbor of Mr.. Otis was
Capt. William Faris, known to many of
our citizens of to-day. for his life was pro-
longed late into the thirties. He was the
father of large family. all of whom have
passed away, save one daughter, now liv-
ing in Boston at the age of 90. Capt. Faris
was banker, of the firm of FariS &
Stocker, during the last quarter of the last
century. They were bankers for the French
refugees, of whom there were many il
those days.
In conversati on with him upon the
refugees then residing in Newburyport
Captain Faris denied the assertion that
had repeatedly been made, that Louis Phil
ippe and Chateaubriand went directly West
upon their arrival at New York. He stated
to me personally that they came to New
buryport incog., had an interview with
Talleyrand. then residing in the house
next below the Dexter house,
in their contingencies; that he
furnished them with additional funds for
their Western journey. and that during their
stay they visited the Dalton farm in New
bury. This visit and the beautiful view
from the Dalton place were alluded to by
Louis Philippe in after life while on the
throne of France.
This statement of Capt Faris. as opposed
to the former assertions regarding Louis
Philippe and Chateaubriand, deem worthy
of record.

Called Vanderbilt Interest.

called vanderbilt Interest.
CLEVELAND. Jan. 3.-JudgesJ J. NJ. Jones
and E. I. Hamilton, decided the big Nickel
Plate railroad case this morning. Suit was
brought against the New York, Chicago &
st. Louis Railroad company by the Union
Trust company, of New York, trustees for
the second mortgage bondholders for $40. :
900. 900. The court held that the first
mortgage held by the Central Trust COM
pany as trustees was illegal, and that the
bondholders under that mortgage are gen
eral creditors to the amount of SIS. 900, 900.
The court also ordered the sale of the road
under the second mortgage, which amounts
to $40, 900, 900. The validity of the car
trust certificates, amounting to 81, 900. 600,
was affirmed and separate sale of the
equipment under these certificates was
| ordered. 1t was claimed that
| the consolidation of five state
| corporations into the Nickel Plate
was illegal. The court declared that the
consolidation was illegal i'll two respects.
but the corporation was a corporation Gle
facto and HAD a legal right to execute the
| mortgages. 1t was also held that neither
the Lake Shore d Michigan Southern rail
| way, nor the Judgment creditors of the
Nickel Plate, have liens by virtue of their
judgments and their only interest is as
creditors to the extent of their judgments.
The decision is Vanderbilt victory and
| will be appealed.
New YORK, Jan. 3.-The decision in the
Nickel Plate case at Cleveland to-day is

RUMBLE OF THE RAILS.
The Local Passenger Agents Association
Holds Regular Meeting at
the Union Depot.
The Association Adopts a Constitution
and Bylaws and Elects Officers
for Year.
Result of the Nickel Plate Litigation
in Favor of the Vanderbilt
Interest.
Judge Cooley Completes the Selection
of the Staff on the
Wabash.

The st. Paul and Minneapolis Passenger
Agents association met in regular session
at the Union depot yesterday morning for
the purpose of adopting constitution and
bylaws and transacting other business of
Importance. The constitution and bylaws
OF the Chicago Passenger Agents associa-
ton were adopted with but few changes.
There were four candidates for the presi-
dents chair, but Charley Fee, general pas
senger agent of the Northern Pacific road
was the favorte and he was elected Oh a
vote of six to five. S. F. Boyd, general
freight agent Of the Milwaukee road, was
elected vice president and P. A.
Rockwell, secretary. Mr.. Rockwell has
flled this position since the establish
ment of the association and was
the unanimous choice of the body.
Heretofore the objection of one line has
been sufficient to keep a rate out of the
rate sheet. In substance this rule has not
been changed. hut clause has been added
to the bylaws which permits the aggrieved
line to appeal to an arbitration committee to
be composed of three passenger agents. one
member Of this committee to be appointed
by the agrleyed, one by the other lines, and
the third arbitrator to be chosen by these
two. The decision OF this committee must
be rendered within ten days, and the roads
are compelled to abide by it. Another rule
says that no passenger rate. either special
or regular, shall be allowed to appear ill the
rate sheet without the consent of all lines
interested in such rates. 1t shall be the
duty OF the secretary of the association to
see that no rates are inserted without the
unanimous consent of the lines interested,
and when representatives of the lines inter-
ested are not present, the secretary is in
structed to obtain their assent or objection
in writing. The following resolution was
adopted:
Resolved, That a rate Of els from st. Paul
TO st. Louis and return, via Chicago, be made
for representatives OF the lee Carnival asso-
citation in uniforms, numbering from 100 TO
l5O persons. a proper portion of tickets be
furnished by each line to the Ice Carnival as
